Linux Training: Learn at your leisure
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
Jennifer Cloer sent me a link to a recent Linux.com story about Deborah Wazir, who says that her Linux skills helped her land a job. Deborah tells Jennifer, ""I bought some Linux-based magazines with Live CDs of various distros, bought a book on Ubuntu, borrowed an old laptop from my son, downloaded VMWare and Red Hat, and just started installing the OS. It was a lot of fun!"
Deborah also says that she'll be taking advantage of Linux Foundation training courses this year.
